ok i broke my ONLY key fob. im going to buy another from the dealer. can i program a new key fob even though i dont have a working one anymore? if so, where is the how to?

 

you can only program them through the GM Tech2 scanner....that I'm aware of

some of the older GM vehicles had a strange programming method that excluded the Tech2

did the solder point(s) break at the battery contact? try resoldering the point(s)

 

re solder them and then put a piece of cardboard inbetween the plastic and battery so it wont happen again. worked fine for me

 

lol

or quit dropping the fobs

 

you can get them on ebay for like 15 bucks and take them to the dealer to have them program it with the tech 2.. Just make sure you get the right p/n for the fob itself

 

how much does it cost to program it

 

well that sucks... on my old cougar 2001 i was able to program a new one by myself in like 20 seconds... fml lol

 

i wish i could but its that damn popcorn i ate.

 

iunno like 40 bucks, cheaper than the 155 the dealer quoted me at for a new one

 

They quoted me $60 just to program it.

 

Back when I had my Cavy and I didn't know better I paid like $180 for the fob and programming from the dealer.

 

free if they decide to be nice

free if you're near me lol
